• A University of Maryland bar's transformation from the former bodily-fluid-stained Rendezvous Inn to today's flat-screen TV-filled Cornerstone Grill and Loft incarnation parallels the improving reputation of the university, the Diamondback reports.
• Flooded dorms greeted some University of Illinois students when they returned from spring break last weekend, the Daily Illini reports. "I just came back and found all my clothes in plastic bags and everything was moved around," a freshman says. "My room was in disarray."
